Description of key information

Based on the ThODNH4 the percentage biodegradation of Reaction mass of sodium sulfate, sodium amino-12-dodecanoate and sodium dodecanoedioate reached 30% after 28 days of incubation.
Since the biodegradation of the test item did not reach the pass criterion of 60% degradation and no 10 day-window could be determined, the validity criterion for ready biodegradation was not applicable. Therefore, Reaction mass of sodium sulfate,sodium amino-12-dodecanoate and sodium dodecanoedioate is considered not to be readily biodegradable but a potential of inherent biodegradability can be assumed.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
inherently biodegradable

Additional information

The ready biodegradability ofReaction mass of sodium sulfate, sodium amino-12-dodecanoate and sodium dodecanoedioatewas evaluated in a study performed in accordance with OECD testing guideline 301 F and GLP requirements.
